We all know the drill on Christmas. Hop on Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) or Walmart (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>), or Target (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>), hunting for the perfect gift—maybe even snagging a great deal.
But let's be honest: those gifts often end up forgotten or out of use, no matter how thoughtful.
Ever considered gifting Christmas stocks? Your family and friends may come to appreciate such a gift in time. Here's Why.
Why Gift Stocks
Stocks are an opportunity because they offer financial growth. They can offer financial growth, spark interest in investing, and teach valuable lessons about the stock market. Giving shares in retail giants like Walmart, Amazon, or Target doesn't just say, "I care about you today." It says, "I care about your future."

Why Walmart, Amazon, And Target
Amazon: The company offers exposure to e-commerce, cloud computing, and even AI advancements. It currently has a market capitalization of $2.366 trillion, making it the fifth most valuable company in the world. Year-to-date Amazon shares have grown by 50.11%, significantly outperforming NASDAQ-100 which is at 29.98% during the same period, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
Walmart: A leader in physical retail and rapidly expanding in e-commerce, Walmart remains a robust choice for long-term investors. The company currently stands at number 12 on the list of the world's most valuable companies with a market cap of $725.81 billion. Walmart shares have climbed 70.15% so far this year.
Target: Known for its loyal customer base and successful private-label brands, Target is a solid bet in the retail space. Target currently holds a market value of $60.44 billion, ranking as the 324th most valuable company globally by market cap. While its shares are down 7.81% year-to-date, they have increased by 2.1% over the past five years.
Things To Keep In Mind While Gifting Stocks
Understand The Tax Implications: Gifting stocks comes with tax rules that are important to understand. The IRS allows tax-free gifts of up to $15,000 annually for each recipient ($30,000 for married couples), with amounts over this limit potentially subject to taxes.
Gifting Stocks To Minors: For minors, you'll need to set up a custodial account, such as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/utma-vs-ugma">UTMA or UGMA account</a>. Once the account is set up, stocks can be transferred directly. The gift becomes the child's property and cannot be reclaimed.
Virtual Transfers Between Brokerage Accounts: You'll need their account details and personal information to initiate the transfer through your brokerage platform. If they don't have an account, some platforms let you gift stock via digital gift cards they can redeem for shares.
Remember that stock values can fluctuate, and past performance doesn&#8217;t guarantee future returns. However, the financial lessons learned from owning and monitoring these investments can be invaluable, regardless of market performance.

Filling Christmas Stockings With Amazon, Walmart, And Target Stocks Instead Of Trinkets From These Stores Could Be A Smarter Move: Let Me Explain Why

Keefe, Bruyette &amp; Woods analyst Christopher O'Connell downgrades Brookline Bancorp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRKL#NASDAQ">BRKL</a>) from Outperform to Market Perform and announces $14.5 price target.

Keefe, Bruyette & Woods Downgrades Brookline Bancorp to Market Perform, Announces $14.5 Price Target

Billionaire investor Stanley Druckenmiller's family office Duquesne has offloaded two of Wall Street's hottest AI stocks – Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>), according to a recent 13F filing.
What Happened: Druckenmiller&#8217;s Duquesne Family Office sold all of its Nvidia shares and significantly reduced its Palantir holdings by 95% during the third quarter.
This comes after Nvidia and Palantir have been on a tear this year. While the Nvidia stock surged nearly 190% in 2024 so far, Palantir shares have gained over 386% to date.
While it's not clear why Duquesne has offloaded these two red-hot AI stocks, profit booking could be one of the motives.
Nvidia and Palantir's relatively rich valuations could also have contributed to Duquesne paring its holdings – while Nvidia's trailing 12 months (TTM) price-to-earnings (PE) ratio stands at 55.21, Palantir's stands at 403.45.
Meanwhile, Druckenmiller is increasing his stake in Teva Pharmaceutical (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TEVA#NYSE">TEVA</a>), a company that has seen its shares rise by 112% this year.
Teva&#8217;s strategic shift towards brand-name therapies and its resolution of opioid litigation as key factors contributing to its recent success.
Druckenmiller&#8217;s fund added 1,427,950 shares of Teva during the September-ended quarter, signaling confidence in the pharmaceutical company&#8217;s turnaround and growth potential.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;Druckenmiller, a protégé of&nbsp;George Soros, is renowned for his macroeconomic investment strategy, often making significant bets on industry trends rather than individual companies.
His recent decision to pivot from AI to pharmaceuticals marks a notable shift in his investment focus. Earlier this year, Druckenmiller <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42659876/stanley-druckenmiller-pours-funds-into-1-trillion-company-already-trading-up-100">increased his stake</a> in&nbsp;Broadcom Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), a semiconductor giant, demonstrating his interest in high-growth sectors.
In February, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/02/37175336/billionaire-investor-stanley-druckenmillers-firm-dumps-alphabet-amazon-boosts-investments-in-ai-">Druckenmiller&#8217;s firm divested from</a>&nbsp;Alphabet Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) and&nbsp;Amazon.com Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) while <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/02/37175336/billionaire-investor-stanley-druckenmillers-firm-dumps-alphabet-amazon-boosts-investments-in-ai-">bolstering investments in AI leaders</a> like&nbsp;Microsoft Corp.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and&nbsp;Nvidia.
Despite his bullish stance on AI, Druckenmiller&#8217;s recent actions suggest a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/24/12/42627207/stanley-druckenmillers-top-holding-has-outperformed-its-sector-by-252">strategic realignment towards</a> the healthcare sector, particularly in companies like&nbsp;Natera Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NTRA#NASDAQ">NTRA</a>), which has outperformed its sector significantly.

Stanley Druckenmiller Dumps Street's Hottest AI Stocks — Here's What The Billionaire Investor Is Betting On Next

fuboTV Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FUBO#NYSE">FUBO</a>) shares are trading lower premarket on Tuesday.
On Monday, the company expressed disappointment over TelevisaUnivision&#8216;s decision to pull its programming, leaving thousands of Spanish-speaking consumers without access <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/b42663598/televisaunivision-pulls-spanish-language-programming-from-fubo-impacting-thousands-of-hispanic-con" rel="noreferrer noopener">to vital local news and weather</a>.
According to Fubo, the dispute arises from TelevisaUnivision demanding a 25% price increase and imposing unfair bundling practices that force subscribers to pay for channels they do not watch.
Additionally, Fubo criticized the separate subscription required for Vix+ to access all of TelevisaUnivision&#8217;s sports content.
The company said it remains open to fair negotiations with TelevisaUnivision and highlighted its ongoing dedication to the Hispanic community.
Fubo stated its commitment to offering premium content at competitive rates and emphasized its refusal to accept terms that would burden its subscribers or investors.
Fubo continues to provide a robust selection of Spanish-language programming through its Latino plan, featuring networks such as ESPN Deportes, FOX Deportes, Telemundo Acción, and beIN Sports Español, at what it claims is the lowest price among live TV streaming platforms.
Last week, FuboTV disclosed the launch of Hallmark+, which is available as a standalone premium subscription <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/b42601547/fubo-launches-hallmark-as-standalone-or-add-on-expanding-current-linear-partnership" rel="noreferrer noopener">or an add-on for Fubo customers</a>.
This launch builds on Fubo&#8217;s existing distribution agreement with Hallmark, which already includes Hallmark&#8217;s linear channels.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via ProShares Metaverse ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VERS#NYSE">VERS</a>).
Price Action: At the last check on Tuesday, FUBO shares were trading lower by 1.46% at $1.35 premarket.

fuboTV Battles TelevisaUnivision for Fair Pricing In Spanish-Language Showdown

Warren Buffett&nbsp;is entering 2025 with the largest cash reserve at&nbsp;Berkshire Hathaway&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) in over three decades. 
What Happened:&nbsp;The conglomerate&#8217;s cash holdings have reached a staggering $325 billion, marking the highest percentage of total assets since 1990, CNBC<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/12/22/buffett-heads-into-2025-with-biggest-cash-position-in-more-than-30-years.html"> reported</a> on Tuesday.
This cash accumulation comes as Buffett, 94, finds few attractive investment opportunities amid a highly valued market. The &#8220;Buffett indicator,&#8221; which compares&nbsp;the total market value of&nbsp;U.S. stocks to GDP, has soared to 209%, a level not seen since the 1929 market peak, according to Oppenheimer data.
Throughout 2024, Buffett sold significant portions of his largest holdings, including&nbsp;Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and&nbsp;Bank of America Corp.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>), offloading $133 billion in stocks during the year&#8217;s first three quarters. Despite this, Berkshire&#8217;s shares rose 27% in 2024, its best performance since 2021.

Buffett&#8217;s strategy may involve waiting for a major acquisition opportunity, potentially benefiting his successor,&nbsp;Greg Abel. Analyst&nbsp;Kevin Heal&nbsp;from Argus Research suggests that some of the cash could be used for investments in distressed situations, allowing successors to leave their mark.
"This will also provide an opportunity for the successors to make their own mark when Mr. Buffett ocially hands over the reins."
Why It Matters: This substantial cash reserve positions Berkshire Hathaway for strategic maneuvers in the coming years. Recently, Buffett&#8217;s investment activities have shown a shift. In December, Berkshire significantly increased its stake in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42666459/warren-buffett-once-called-berkshire-the-opposite-of-those-who-hurry-to-sell-now-hes-offloading-apple-and-snapping-up-occidental-petroleum-amid-a-20-drop">Occidental Petroleum Corp.</a> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OXY#NYSE">OXY</a>), acquiring approximately 8.9 million shares over a few days. This move, totaling around $405 million, raised Berkshire&#8217;s ownership to 28% of Occidental, valued at approximately $12 billion.
Price Action: As per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>, BRK.A&#8217;s YTD returns rose by 25.69% while that of BRK.B increased by 25.35%

Warren Buffett Heads Into 2025 With $325 Billion Cash Pile, His Largest in Over Three Decades: Expert Says It 'Will Provide An Opportunity For The Successors To Make Their Own Mark'

From tree-lighting ceremonies, carol sing-alongs, to cute gifts, the Christmas spirit is alive and kicking, bringing families and communities together.
For cryptocurrency enthusiasts, the joy has doubled on the back of Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) record-breaking run leading up to the special day.
However, things were just the exact opposite during the Christmas of 2022.
What happened: After a searing bull market that catapulted Bitcoin and several other tokens to record highs in 2021, things took a drastic U-turn in 2022.&nbsp;
With implosions like the FTX (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ftt/usd">FTT</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42151412/bankrupt-crypto-exchange-ftx-to-commence-payments-to-customers-creditors-in-early-2025#:~:text=In%20October%2C%20a%20U.S.%20bankruptcy,over%20Robinhood%20shares%20in%20September.">exchange bankruptcy</a> and the collapse of the Terra (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/luna/usd">LUNA</a>) cryptocurrency, the market froze in the cryptocurrency winter of 2022.&nbsp;
Bitcoin fell to $16,000 at its lowest point, with a price on Christmas Day at&nbsp; $16,841.99.
See Also:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42640293/trump-congratulates-bitcoiners-on-new-all-time-highs-as-apex-crypto-suffers-first-weekly-loss-since-election-triumph">Trump Congratulates Bitcoin Community On New All-Time Highs Just As Top Crypto Suffers First Weekly Loss Since His Election Triumph</a>
However, if you were still an optimist and gifted your family $150 worth of Bitcoin on the festive day, you wouldn't have disappointed them in the least.
The market turned around dramatically in 2024, and fueled by Donald Trump's election victory, Bitcoin <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41575112/is-bitcoins-trump-trade-still-valid-its-complicated-but-watch-these-two-data-points">breached the $100,000 milestone</a>.
To set the record straight, Bitcoin traded at $94,140.23 as of this writing. This meant the stash you gifted on Christmas 2022 would be worth $838.44 today, representing a profit of 458%.
To put this in context, it was larger than the average amount an American is estimated to spend on gifts this holiday season, which is $641, <a href="https://nrf.com/media-center/press-releases/2024-holiday-spending-expected-reach-new-record">according </a>to the National Retail Federation.&nbsp;
So, basically, the 2022 gift would have increased your family&#8217;s purchasing power, allowing them to buy even more gifts for your loved ones in 2024.
However, everything is not lost if you ended up panic-selling your Bitcoin stash in 2022. If your belief in the asset&#8217;s long-term potential remains strong, you may wish to buy some this Christmas.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $94,140.23, down 0.71% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

On Monday, Lockheed Martin Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) secured several major defense contracts, solidifying its role as a key player in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.defense.gov/News/Contracts/Contract/Article/4016173/" rel="noreferrer noopener">U.S. military and allied operations</a>.
The company received a $3.37 billion modification to an existing agreement, expanding logistics support for the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter program.
This initiative encompasses ground maintenance, pilot training, supply chain management, and depot activities for the Air Force, Marine Corps, Navy, Foreign Military Sales (FMS) customers, and other partners.

Work will occur in Texas, Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, and California, with completion anticipated by December 2025.
Lockheed Martin has also won a $335.7 million contract modification for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program. This deal supports various 2025 activities, including aircraft induction, field and depot site support, and specialized equipment procurement.
The funds come from multiple sources, including Navy and Air Force procurement budgets and contributions from FMS customers and program partners. Work will primarily occur in Fort Worth, Texas, and will likely conclude by the end of 2025.
The company&#8217;s Moorestown, New Jersey division secured a $10.5 million contract to continue engineering and development for the AEGIS Combat System.
The project, focusing on delivering advanced weapon system capabilities for the Navy&#8217;s FFG 62 program, will run until March 2025. Separately, Lockheed Martin&#8217;s Orlando, Florida unit received a $71.6 million contract to provide depot-level support for Apache attack helicopters, with an estimated completion date of December 2025.
Lockheed Martin stock gained 7% year-to-date. Elon Musk&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42525698/as-elon-musk-takes-on-lockheed-martin-made-f-35s-experts-question-feasibility-of-replacing-manned-fighter-jets-with-drones" rel="noreferrer noopener">recent push for drone warfare</a> over traditional manned aircraft has sparked debate among experts regarding its feasibility.
Musk criticized Lockheed Martin&#8217;s F-35 stealth fighter program, advocating for the use of drone swarms, which he showcased in a video, and questioning the continued investment in piloted jets. Musk, a Donald Trump ally, is a co-lead of Trump&#8217;s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Goldman Sachs <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/12/42468190/defense-stocks-face-headwinds-as-trumps-doge-targets-spending-cuts-goldman-sachs-downgrades-general-dynamics-to-sell" rel="noreferrer noopener">maintained a Sell rating</a> on Lockheed Martin, citing concerns about the F-35 program, which DOGE leadership has identified as a potential cost-cutting target.
Analyst Noah Poponak highlighted risks to margins and spending, noting that Lockheed&#8217;s free cash flow is projected to remain flat over the coming years. Poponak also pointed out the stock&#8217;s high valuation, trading at 23 times estimated 2025 earnings, which he considers a steep premium given these challenges.
Investors can gain exposure to Lockheed Martin through Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VTI#NYSE">VTI</a>) and iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVV#NYSE">IVV</a>).

Raymond James Reinstates Outperform on Federal Signal, Announces $110 Price Target

The Russian government has announced a six-year ban <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/cryptocurrency-mining">on cryptocurrency mining</a> in ten regions, effective Jan. 1, 2025, citing concerns over excessive energy consumption.
The restrictions, set to last until March 15, 2031, will apply to both individual and pool mining operations, Tass <a href="https://tass.ru/ekonomika/22755633">reported</a>.
The ban targets Dagestan, Ingushetia, Kabardino-Balkaria, Karachay-Cherkessia, North Ossetia, Chechnya, and the occupied territories of Donetsk and Lugansk People&#8217;s Republics, as well as the Zaporizhia and Kherson regions. 
The Russian government also issued a temporary ban that restricts operations during peak demand in parts of Irkutsk Region, Buryatia, and the Zabaikalsky Krai between Nov. 15 and March 15, annually.
The move aims to address imbalances in energy consumption and costs.

According to Sergey Kolobanov, deputy director of the Center for the Economy of Fuel and Energy Sectors, "The ban is connected not only with the local electricity shortage, but also with the benefits for paying for electricity in some regions." 
While Russia <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42244078/vladimir-putin-signs-bitcoin-mining-crypto-taxation-law">legalized mining last November</a>, provided that miners register with the Federal Tax Service, these new restrictions highlight the ongoing challenges of managing the energy consumption associated with cryptocurrency mining.
This decision comes three weeks after Russian president Vladimir Putin said that &#8220;nobody can ban Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), pointing out that cryptocurrencies will develop &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42317460/vladimir-putin-says-nobody-can-ban-bitcoin-stresses-crypto-will-develop-one-way-or-the-other">one way or the other</a>.&#8221;

Brazilian authorities said on Monday that they have halted the construction of the plant that Chinese EV giant BYD Co Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) is building in Salvador, Bahia after finding workers living and working in conditions analogous to &#8220;slavery.&#8221;
What Happened: Authorities ordered that the construction of the factory in Bahia be stopped after rescuing 163 people working at the site, according to a statement by the Labor Prosecutor&#8217;s Office (MPT).
The authorities shut down the workers&#8217; lodgings and communicated the same to both BYD and construction firm Jinjiang Construction Brazil Ltd, one of the contractors hired by the company to carry out the construction, it added.
MPT&#8217;s statement said that the workers lived in conditions analogous to slavery across four main lodgings. In one of the lodgings, the workers slept on beds without mattresses and 31 workers shared one bathroom, it said. 
At the construction site, there were only eight badly maintained chemical toilets for about 600 workers, it said, while also noting multiple accidents at the site. In one case, a worker suffered an accident after not having a break for 25 days.
The MPT also noted that the conditions constituted &#8220;forced labor.&#8221; If a worker were to terminate their employment contract after six months, they would leave the country without any pay for their work since the company deducted their airfare to and from Brazil, in addition to other costs, the statement said. 
BYD did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comment.
Why It Matters: BYD is China&#8217;s largest EV maker and makes plug-in hybrids and battery electric vehicles which are sold in China, Europe, and also Brazil. In November alone, the company made 540,588 new energy vehicles as compared to 316,510 in the corresponding month of 2023.
BYD <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36839203/warren-buffett-backed-byd-sees-higher-profits-for-fy23-after-taking-over-tesla-as-biggest-ev-seller" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">took over Tesla</a>&nbsp;as the world's largest BEV seller in the fourth quarter of 2023. However, Tesla took back the crown in the first quarter of 2024 and has been holding on to it since.
For the third quarter between July and September, BYD reported operating revenue of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41647639/teslas-chinese-rival-byd-outshines-elon-musks-ev-giant-in-quarterly-revenue-for-first-time-since-202" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">201.12 billion yuan ($28.25 billion)</a> and net profit of 11.6 billion yuan. 
The company&#8217;s new factory in Bahia was expected to be operational by next year.

The Court issued a summary judgment decision granting Pfizer's motion that the ‘953 Patent is invalid. In its decision, the Court also denied Enanta's partial motion for summary judgment of infringement as moot in light of its allowance of summary judgment on invalidity. Enanta plans to appeal the decision to the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
